Prophetik Autumn/Winter 2011 - London Fashion Week

The Prophetik Autumn/Winter 2011 show kicked off with a live volin performance byAnaliza Ching, and the award-winning British composer and conductor, Benjamin Ellin and his orchestra.

Ripped silks and organic sit alongside 100 year year old southern quilt handed down from Jeff Garner's great grandmother Lola.

One of the jackets in his collection is crafted from the quilted bedspread from Jeff's bed as a child.

Thick and heavy hemp skirt sweep the floor and a new fabric introduced this season is a cactus silk, made from the agave plant.

Prophetik's show stopping finale dress is made from ostrich feathers, which are naturally shed twice a year, hand stitched onto silk.

Prophetik has collaborated with accessories label dotted loop on the reworked vintage jewellery and with Los Angeles based sustainable shoe label, CYDWOQ. Shoes have been co-designed by Prophetik's Keff Garner and CYDWOQ's Rafi, made by artisans using vegetable-tanned leather.
